Here are some photos of the finished Ulysses.
The one with natural canvas handles is the only one that doesn't have the Reaper Finish. I tried my best to get some decent photos of that finish to really show the color, but it's hard to do. That finish is a really deep controlled texture pattern with almost case hardening looking color to it.

Any time you use phenolic materials, there's a chance that you'll get a weird spot in it like this. I think it adds character.

Emails about these Ulysses Knives will be going out soon. So, keep an eye out.
 
as I slave away in my one man hovel, I have to admit I miss working in that shop! After seeing those pics is it to late to change my order?
 
Cool pictures, thanks for sharing!

Someone is sending me there Ulysses so that I can make them a custom Open backed sheath and make patterns to do others. If someone wants a Leather Ulysses sheath, let me know. :D
